Abstract
Since years a classical oscillator is known representing fundamental properties of quantum mechanical systems without the use of the demanding mathematics of quantum theory. This allows to develop an intuitive notion in introductory quantum theory lessons in high school and university. Spontaneous and stimulated emission, quantization and collapse of the oscillator in analogy to the collapse of the wave function and the probability interpretation are clearly demonstrated, The simulation of the oscillator with the GNU Octave software and the related code are presented. ---- Seit Jahren ist ein klassischer Oszillator bekannt, der es erlaubt einige grundlegende Eigenschaften von quantenmechanischen Systemen darzustellen, ohne die anspruchsvolle Mathematik der Quantenmechanik benutzen zu m\"ussen. Dadurch ist es m\"oglich in der Schule und Hochschule in Kursen zur Einf\"uhrung in die…
